Grace Notes: In the Humble
Pursuit of Perfection
Grace Notes
wind chimes are considered to be the “most musical” on the planet. This is in no
small part due to the relentless dedication of brothers Jeff and Mark Kile,
founders of Grace Notes. Jeff originally got the idea for a superior wind
chime while playing guitar on the streets of Louisiana to earn a meager living.
The problem with existing harmonic wind chimes was their inferior suspension
system that permitted interference from the strings. To solve this problem, Jeff
created a unique pinned suspension device that placed pins inside the resonant
node (place on vibrating tube that doesn’t actually vibrate) thus eliminating
interference and creating a crystal clear tone that was superior to anything
that existed at the time.
Excited about his
design, Jeff returned home to California where he convinced his brother Mark to
start making these superior wind chimes out of their parents’ barn. What began
as a simple desire to produce a superior wind chime has evolved into the
relentless pursuit of perfection by everyone involved with Grace Notes.
The company has
expanded and now operates out of a state-of-the-art production facility where
each and every wind chime is still hand crafted like the originals. While some
of the production methods have been modernized, every Grace Notes wind
chime is still hand crafted and designed to be the “most musical” on the planet.
Brothers Jeff and Mark Kile still insist on using only the finest materials and
craftsmanship to produce each and every wind chime bearing the Grace Notes
name. These impressive wind chimes host an array of distinctive features
that help set them apart from anything else on the market today, including:
-

produce the crystal clear tones that Grace Notes wind chimes are
famous for.

Composite Strikers: Grace Notes truly is an environmentally friendly

Harmonic Aluminum Tubing: Jeff and Mark know that the only way to
produce superior quality tones is to use the finest materials which is why
all Grace Notes wind chimes are produced with harmonically tuned
tempered aluminum tubing. This superior material produces the clearest notes
while resisting the corrosive elements.
-

only the finest wind chimes on the market which is why they will guarantee
